About Daniel & Yoga of Energy Flow

Boston yoga teacher with classes, workshops, and yoga teacher trainings in Boston, New England, and Europe

I would love to live like a river flows, carried by the surprise of its own unfolding. ~ John O’Donohue

I have studied yoga and meditation for over forty years, and have taught for twenty-four, in Europe and America. I am the originator of Meridian Yoga, and certified in Kundalini Yoga (as taught by Yogi Bhajan), Jnana Yoga, and Kali Ray TriYoga; also a graduate of the Boston Shiatsu School, and an enthusiastic student of Qigong.

My academic education led to a masters degree in Expressive Art Therapy/Dance Therapy from Lesley University and I have been a visiting lecturer in movement studies at Tufts University.

Yoga of Energy Flow integrates three yoga styles into one unified, transformational practice:• Kundalini Yoga activates prana/chi energy, and strengthens the nervous system.• Meridian Yoga opens and balances the internal energy flow.• TriYoga, a vinyasa style, cultivates the flow of internal energy into a beautiful flow of postures;
it is the art of meditation in action, with similar movement qualities to Qigong.

These three yoga styles are very complementary and in combination, powerful. Each has been a wonderful help on my journey towards health, happiness, and wisdom. I love to share these practices with my students.

There is a creative infinity that is in constant flow among, through, and with all things. To me, the experience of this silent flow is what yoga is all about. Like the Chinese concept of the Tao, this flow has no beginning or end; it is unity with the all. It is the moment before we breathe, and the breath we take. It is the moment after, too.
The science of yoga is the practices that bring us to this feeling of wholeness and peace. It is a map of the path we travel, the vehicles that carry us, and the scenery on the way. It is the asanas, the pranayama, the meditations; it is all the techniques that have been used for centuries to melt the physical, emotional, and mental boundaries, until only reality, totality, infinity, and bliss are left.
